Quantum Computing: fundamentals

Quantum Computing is emerging alongside Artificial Intelligence as one of the most influential technologies shaping the future of computing.

Quantum Computing is no longer just a theoretical concept - it is becoming a practical technology with the potential to transform industries. By leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics, Quantum Computers can solve certain problems exponentially faster than classical computers, opening new possibilities in areas such as cryptography and cybersecurity, optimization and logistics, drug discovery and material science, Artifical Intelligence and machine learning,...

Understanding Quantum Computing gives professionals a head start in identifying opportunities and contributing to innovation in their fields.

Quantum Computing Fundamentals are introduced with a clear focus on the differences between Quantum and classical computing. This session answers essential questions: what are the hardware implementations? How are Quantum applications developed? Who are the early adopters and what drives them? Which use cases matter today, and which will shape tomorrow? And … how do organizations typically structure their Quantum journey?
